Last Friday, US released their monthly Nonfarm Payroll (NFP) data with a higher than expected reading as well as a lower unemployment rate. Both bullish data failed to kept dollar at its high level as investors reacted towards the poor Average Hourly Earnings data which came in at 3.2% vs 3.3%. The slowdown in wage growth indicated a possibly lower spending which will affect the inflation level for the long-run. This spiraled uncertainties in the market and heightened the possibility for future rate cut by Federal Reserve by this year. Besides that, greenback was further pressured by President Trump\u2019s threat for tariff hike on Chinese goods. Last Sunday, China was pressured to reach a deal when Trump threatened to increase tariffs on another $200 billion worth of Chinese goods this week if no deal were met. The major shift in tone from Trump caused investors to exit the dollar market and enter into safe-haven Yen and gold market. As of writing, pair of USDJPY was down by 0.61% to 110.40.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As for commodities, crude oil price plunged 2.36% to $60.34 per barrel amid Trump\u2019s tariff threat on another $200 billion worth of Chinese goods. The threat caused a major sell-off in oil market as investors fear that the tension in trade war will further drag the demand for crude oil. Besides that, according to US Baker Hughes, last week rig count was increased by 2 to 807, signaling increasing oil production in the US market. Likewise, gold price extended its gains by 0.45% to $1284.70 a troy ounce amid trade war uncertainties which caused investors to flee into safe-haven gold.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Holiday Market Close<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Market\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Event<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>All Day\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 UK\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Early May Bank Holiday<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Events<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Market\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Event<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>01:45 (7<sup>th<\/sup>)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 CAD\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Boc Gov Poloz Speaks<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u><br \/>\n<\/u><\/p>\n<p><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n<p><u>Today\u2019s Highlight Economic Data<\/u><\/p>\n<table width=\"104%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"14%\"><strong>Time<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"51%\"><strong>Market &amp; Data<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\"><strong>Previous<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"11%\"><strong>Forecast<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"9%\"><strong>Actual<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"14%\">15:55<\/td>\n<td width=\"51%\">EUR \u2013 German Services PMI (Apr)<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">55.6<\/td>\n<td width=\"11%\">55.6<\/td>\n<td width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"14%\">16:00<\/td>\n<td width=\"51%\">EUR \u2013 Markit Composite PMI (Apr)<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">51.3<\/td>\n<td width=\"11%\">51.3<\/td>\n<td width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"14%\">17:00<\/td>\n<td width=\"51%\">EUR \u2013 Services PMI (Apr)<\/td>\n<td width=\"12%\">52.5<\/td>\n<td width=\"11%\">52.5<\/td>\n<td width=\"9%\">&#8211;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Technical Analysis<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-57304\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gcmasia.co\/analysis\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/05\/060519-DOLLAR_INDX.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>DOLLAR_INDX, H4: <\/strong>Dollar index was traded lower following recent retracement from the resistance level 97.60.
